Thank you Owen, I agree it is stunning. I had sent Beau a picture of my garden and this flower, he had a friend draw it in pastels. ( Byron Miller, is the artist) Beau is also an amazing artist, he draws amazing portraits

About Me

I am a prisoner of the United States government in the state of Colorado, These are my articles, views, stories and thoughts that I have written throughout my incarceration, I am trying to get people out there aware of the changes that are needed to be seen and made to America's Prison System, for prison reform and prisoner rehabilitation. Please leave comments, advice or suggestions, I appreciate all feedback.

The American Prisoner

This is meant to inform the public not only of the condition of American prisons but moreso the mindset and values of their occupants. Those behind bars are as vastly different from one another as those on a college campus-many are whizbang hardcore convicts; others fail in this arena, overcome by fear and sadness; most are in an average, merely awaiting release, maintaining a status quo where the uncomfortable state of change is not required. This is not a cry for immediate sentence restructure of legal amendments for early release. This is not a cry for prison reform as much as it is an assertion-based on years of painful experience-that recidivism can only be apprehended by the reformation of the criminal mindset. This is as severe a call for change as impetus and response could require the public to consider. Crime is an ill to be fought at its breeding ground-prison.
